translation

Question 1

1

Answer 1

amino acids are brought to the ribosomes by TRNA

Question 2

2

Answer 2

The order in which the amino acids are brought to the ribosomes matches the order of the base triplets in mRNA. base triplets in mRNA are also known as codons.

Question 3

3

Answer 3

part of the tRNA’s structure is called an anticodon- it is complementary to the codon for the amino acid. the pairing of the codon and anticodon makes sure that the amino acids are brought to the ribosome in the correct order.

Question 4

4

Answer 4

the amino acids are joined together by the ribosome. this makes a polypeptide(protein).
